No online application available. The initial online password given by phone and email didn't work. No envelopes provided in postal application pack. Nominated account verification failed. No option to send PDF statement to verify nominated account. Reviewed on: 24th September 2024

Always appreciate a society that opens products to all

I posted off my application on Friday 13th September as I’m 100+ miles from a branch and received my passbook today, 24th. Impressive turnaround from a small society, albeit I felt the communication could have been a little better. I received my User ID and a verification code on the 20th, which led me to be a little concerned that the passbook may have gone missing in the post. Perhaps add a note to one of these saying that the passbook will follow once funds are received/cheque has cleared. Reviewed on: 24th September 2024

I suggest more consideration given to use of more robust packaging for postal material as it has lots of damage and tape was used suggesting the lack of stability was known. Luckily the savings payment card was still inside. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

We like your ease of contact, your staff are very helpful and friendly. Oakham branch is easy to access, I am not sure it could be better. I would like to thank the care and consideration staff gave me when we opened an ISA for my husband. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

Helpful staff - efficient service and good rates of interest on savings. A branch in Norwich would be good. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

The product I had was a Jubilee Regular Savings Account. I was locked into a poor interest rate so stopped paying into mid-term. I note you no longer offer regular savings accounts now that interest rates are higher. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

At the time interest rates were good - you need to keep them competitive. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024
